Try using your stock ecu and see what it does. If not are your injectors dirty, or is the #2 wire bad . Check the plugs are they gapped right or are they fouled or are they bad.

If the wires are bad you will still get spark but it my be weak and a weak spark will cause the cylinder to seem dead. If the injectors are dirty you will not get enough feul and the car will run bad . Yes a warped head or blown head gasket could cause. Does it smoke and if so what color. Does it have compresion on the cylinder and if so what is compresion on all for cylinders.

Do a compression test on all cylinders. If #2 is making good compression, start up the car. Pull out the spark plug wire from cylinder #2. If the engine sounds the same without "dropping" in power, then try replacing the spark plug wires.
And also did you do a valve adjustment after installation?
